Learning Tool Analysis

There are seven aspects of the learning tools that can help me become a better leader. Those aspects are reduction of judgemental communication, understanding my own feelings and my own needs, how to balance the status of others, how to project and manifest certainty, how to manage autonomy, how to keep people satisfied with relatedness, and how keep a sense of fairness. Learning how to use these two tools requires a mix of all of these aspects to make a well rounded and formidable leader. What follows is the seven aspects I think define the tools and what I think I should think about them as a leader. They text reflects how I would use the tools if I were the leader.

I know fairness was supposed to come before relatedness in the anagram. It seemed a little unfair for fairness to be last though. Relatedness should be last because all the other aspects seems to feed into it. Everything comes together to build our view of relatedness. As a leader, I think everyone in the team has to be right for the team. Assembling a team should be done by making sure the members can work together and communicate.
